With In Your Radiant Season approaching its final episode, Chae Jong Hyeop revealed his favorite scenes and final viewing points.
In Your Radiant Season, the MBC Friday-Saturday drama ending on the 3rd (abbreviated as '찬너계'), centered on Lee Sung-kyoung and Chae Jong Hyeop and featuring Lee Mi-Sook, Han Ji-hyun, Oh Yeju and the "Nana family," has drawn viewers' empathy with lines that soothe various forms of love and hearts and a tightly woven narrative. Ahead of the final episode, Chae Jong Hyeop, who reached the pinnacle of a rescue romance portraying Sunwoo Chan, shared his favorite scenes and viewing points for the final episode.
First, Chae Jong Hyeop, who drew a deep emotional line as Sunwoo Chan, said, "Every scene and every episode was my favorite," but added, "If you look at the narrative of Sunwoo Chan from episode 1 to episode 11, I think I can point to two scenes."
The first scene Chae Jong Hyeop chose is the moment in episode 1 when animator Sunwoo Chan and designer Song Haran (played by Lee Sung-kyoung) face each other at Nana's atelier. Seven years earlier, at the request of Kwon Do Hyoung (played by Kwon Do Hyoung), Sunwoo Chan had been building feelings with Song Haran and was a person who had even lost the will to live. The message Song Haran sent at the moment of his extreme decision became the reason for Sunwoo Chan to live again. Song Haran was the one who pulled Sunwoo Chan out of the winter he was trapped in, and seven years later, when Sunwoo Chan returned to Korea, he reunited with her like fate at Nana's atelier, marking the beginning of the rescue romance.
Chae Jong Hyeop said of that scene, "It remains memorable because it is the turning point where everything begins as Sunwoo Chan and where gaps in memory and tinnitus and other sensory abnormalities first start." He continued, "The other scene is in episode 11, where the distortion of memory is truly believed and recognized. The flow continues from the moment he visits Song Haran but cannot approach her to the scene where he meets Cha Sujin (played by Lee Joo-yeon) to confirm the facts, and I think this is also another turning point."
Ahead of the final episode, Chae Jong Hyeop asked viewers to watch until the end, saying, "I hope you watch how the small stories and details that Haran and Chan have built seep in and accumulate, and what choices the two will make based on those emotions and memories."
Meanwhile, in the previous broadcast, Sunwoo Chan suddenly disappeared after hearing from Cha Sujin that he might be responsible for the death of Kwon Hyuk-chan, who was Song Haran's ex-boyfriend and roommate. Song Haran is also experiencing confusion between the sense of betrayal at being deceived and still missing him.
As attention focuses on what result Sunwoo Chan's choice will bring after he had been piecing together fragments of memory to stay by Song Haran's side, curiosity grows about where he has gone and how he is spending his time, and whether he will return and face the truth.
The final episode of In Your Radiant Season will be extended by 10 minutes and air on Friday the 3rd at 9:40 p.m.
